Dec 16, 2018 - DREAM ON THE IMPORTANCE OF LONG HAIR by Damon Corrie

Nice dream last night, I was visiting Lakotas somewhere in the lands that will become Republic of Lakota…mostly children and elders came to see me (because the elders know – and the youth WANT to know), all had lovely long black hair so when my bro Chase Iron Eyes (yes he was in it too) came I told him I wanted to get a group shot photo with everyone proudly displaying all our long hair, then I shared food with everyone, my wife was there too, and one young Lakota man who had short hair….

I noticed he had a sore in his head toward the top-back..where they call the çrown…so he could not see the sore but he felt all was not well in his head….so I told him….the reason why you do not have long hair like all your ancestors did…is because your mind is spiritually polluted but you do not realize it…the sore at the back of your head in the crown area – where the hair begins to grow on every human baby in the womb – is a sign of this….also it being where you cannot see it…is also a sign that subconsciously – you know that all is not well inside you..but by being unable to see the external sign of this internal conflict…you are unable to see the bigger picture….and so you regurgitate the usual indoctrination excuses as to why ‘long hair is not important’…those who have the spiritual understanding that you lack all know the opposite to be true……..”What Damon is trying to tell you is you straight up got Wasicu brain disease bro!” Chase told him – and we all laughed.

Well yes, basically brother Hamtaro is right (‘Hamtaro is the nick-name I gave Chase – as he was often chewing sunflower seeds – packing em in his cheeks like a Hamster – when he brought my son Hatuey and myself to visit Lakota lands and sacred sites, and gave our first Inipi with now deceased medicine Man Marvin Helper over in Red Shirt a few years ago)…everything has power as Geronimo said…our spirituality cannot be safely mixed with their religions…we can recognise their good teachers (Jesus himself had long hair) – but also their false teachers as both exist in their texts and if you are not careful the mixed messages can corrupt your mind…and then you will have Lakotas who become haters of themselves…quick to put down their ancestral spirituality and quick to praise or justify Wasicu religions..although even the blind can see how it has been like a fire consuming our best ways till almost nothing is left….except people who only look like their ancestors but who only think like the vice-addicted wasicu enemies that destroyed them….this is the great gift their religions have given us…and its fruit has been Wasichu made substance addictions, division among our peoples and self contempt where before it – when we only had our birthright spirituality – we were the most sober and united people on the plains.

We faced wars yes…but wars with external enemies….now this ‘Wasicu mind disease’ has us waging war among ourselves…how is this ‘better’ than how we lived before? Because we have more diseased bodies and spiritually useless material things in our lives today…so was that really the ‘price of progress’ worth paying for in blood, sweat and tears – so we could believe another mans words telling us now our ‘souls are saved’ for abandoning our ancestral ways ..when in truth we are more unholy now after believing this lie than we ever were?

Did all our ancestors who were murdered so that ‘Wasicu manifest destiny’ could prevail – die so horribly just so their descendants could help continue the real enemies work of the conquest of our minds, bodies and spirits?

The young man wept, and vowed to grow his hair again, and I woke up
